still can't figure it out....i'll have to practice later....thanks for all the compliments guys...progess pics willbeup soon..but now it's time for work....
First off, nice car. love those wheels especially. super clean.
2nd... you managed an sub-14 run with a half-streetport 12a, a mikuni, and a header? either that is one well-tuned carb, or your not telling the whole story... enlighten me!

1/2 bridge 1/2 street is the best of both worlds. I've personally seen one of my uncle's 13b into sr5 swaps run 13.2 fully stripped with M/T street radials (the ones that look like they have little bone designs) and a stock sr5 diff. I **** you not that car flew!
To the original poster: Man ur car is clean, I'm stripping my new project car and I'm debating on weather to go with the stock black it has now (faded) or a different black alltogether. I'm just wondering what black that is?
Nice rims too. They look like bbs's with a bigger center radius. Any other plans?

If the finish on the wheels is still mnt, don't paint, they look good as they are. And this is coming from a guy who's favorite wheels are mesh with dark centers, lol. The black with blue pearl sounds intersting. Pearls can be fun and a pita at the same time. Wish I did more painting and could afford to play with them more.
